We are Jennie and Peter. We have two kittens, Pipi and Jag. We do our utmost to keep them under control, but hey, they are kittens. Peter sells Real Estate, loves animals, nice cars and big TVs. I also have a keen interest in animal welfare, having worked for the SPCA for over a decade, am an ex skydiver and scuba diver. I have been in the BnB business since February 2015, have hosted thousands of guests and have enjoyed every minute of it.
